The torchbearer of the Lucknow gharana presents a scintillating classical tabla solo. Accompaniment is provided by Surjeet Singh on sarangi and Rekesh Chauhan on harmonium.

This is followed by a performance of kathak by Deepak Maharaj, son of the legendary Pandit Birju Maharaj and doyen of Kalka-Bindadin gharana of Lucknow, with accompaniment by Pranshu Chatur Lal on tabla and Ghulam Waris on harmonium and vocals.

The evening is compered by Divya Mathur who brings an additional flavour of Lucknow with some classical Urdu poetry.
